Standardization of Drive End of Hydraulic Or Geared Torque Wrenches for Use to An Upper Limit of 500,000 Inch Pounds

Scope

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) covers the dimensions of an inside splined driver-wrench adapter, envelope of the housing-wrench reaction, the mechanical method of adapting the driver-wrench adapter to the wrench adapter driven end, and the housing-wrench reaction to the holder-counter torque.

The purpose of this recommended practice is to provide recommendations for the design of a series of components which, when used as prescribed, will provide a wrench capable of producing up to 500,000 in.-lb of torque.
